Certain information contained in this presentation, including, but not limited to, cash flows, operating
margins, store counts, earnings expectations for fiscal 2012 and estimates through fiscal 2016,
constitute forward-looking statements under the federal securities laws. The discussion of forward-
looking information requires management of the Company to make certain estimates and assumptions
regarding the Company's strategic direction and the effect of such plans on the Company's financial
results. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those indicated. Such risks and uncertainties may include, but
are not limited to: the failure to implement the Company's business plan for increased profitability and
growth in the Company's retail stores sales and direct-to-consumer business, the failure to achieve
improvement in the Company's competitive position, changes in or miscalculation of fashion trends,
extreme or unseasonable weather conditions, economic downturns, a weakness in overall consumer
demand,  trade and security restrictions and political or financial instability in countries where goods
are manufactured, increases in raw material costs from inflation and other factors, the interruption of
merchandise flow from the Company's distribution facility, competitive pressures, and the adverse
effects of natural disasters, war, acts of terrorism or threats of either, or other armed conflict, on the
United States and international economies. These, and other risks and uncertainties, are detailed in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the
fiscal year ended January 28, 2012 filed on March 16, 2012 and other Company filings with the

period also are included in determination of comparable sales.
